It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia – The sound at the end of the show
Adam introduced me to the television show “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.” It’s been very helpful to my healing process – laughter is the best narcotic.
The show is on FX, and is freaking hysterical. I cant think of any episode that hasn’t had us cracking up, and me saying “Oh my god I cant believe they just did that.” Several times we have rewound (not sure the proper term with a DVD) scenes to play them again and again.
Im curious how many other gals like the show. Some of the humor is twisted and childish, but I seriously think they do an amazing job writing the show. It’s very low budget, at least in the beginning it was – but the stories and characters are so well done.
Sometimes I’m reminded of Seinfeld and how uncomfortable I was when George Costanza would do something stupid. These characters do something every show, but are sometimes such a$$holes, that it’s okay somehow. I don’t feel as uncomfortable. Except Charlie. We love him. He’s like a puppy dog or something, you can’t get too mad because he doesn’t know what he is doing. Karate…Snow mobile…chop set? OMG.
The story of how the show came to be (as seen on the DVD) – is really inspiring. They just went for it – submitting the pilot to different stations – and now it is a hit tv show on FX.
So, low budget and all, at the end of the show, after the credits roll, an image of three main characters is shown along with a sound clip that plays backwards. Pretty simple for them to do, but it has had me intrigued.
The desire to know the deeper meaning behind the sound intensified as I realized they changed it from one season to another. As we started Season 4, I really wanted to know. I searched the Interwebs looking for the real message but could not find anything.
So, I fired up Audacity to play with the clips.
For those of you who always wished you could tell what they were saying – here you go:
(I haven’t posted my interpretation on what they are saying, in case you wanted to try and figure it out for yourself)
Season 1 – As heard at end of episode
Season 1 – In Reverse
Season 2 – As heard at end of episode
Season 2 – In Reverse
Season 3 – As heard at end of episode
Season 3 – In Reverse
Season 4 – As heard at end of episode
Season 4 – In Reverse
Season 5 – As heard at end of episode
Season 5 – In Reverse
I was also introduced to this show while I was healing… unfortunately, I was healing from abdominal surgery and I thought I was going to burst a stitch every time I watched… I couldn’t stop laughing. I love the show. LOVE LOVE LOVE. It is very easily my favorite show.
Thanks for posting these sound clips. I am a huge fan of this show, and like you, once I knew they changed this from season to season, it drove me crazy and had to know what they were saying. You solved it for me!
I updated it to include Season 5!
Thanks for helping out with these clips and taking the time to post them up. I love the show and have always wondered what they’ve said at the end of each episode. Thanks again!
I concur… I’ve recently been introduced to this show and I can’t stop watching.
I too love love love this show! I came across this because I was searching for the sound at the end of season four so I could make it a ring tone. I just think it sounds so cool. Do you have an mp3 of it you could send to me? Please let me know, I can’t figure out how to capture it just from playing it here. Thanks!!
Thanks for reversing the clips…it is pretty funny stuff and cool to figure out what is going on with the weird sounds.
Thanks for the great layout of forward then reverse for every season!
i cant load the season 4 and 5 audio
Thanks for the comment Pallywhacker – those two were missed in the transfer to a new server. Filezilla can be so cruel. They are there now.
Absolutely awesome — I was hoping someone would have the answers on this. But the fact that you went and did it yourself and posted the audio — you’re a bigger fanatic than ‘Green Man’.
excellent. just…. absolutely excellent. will you please get “an always sunny xmas” (just came out today) and post what they say at the end of THAT? cos it’s different…
from what i can tell, at the end of “an always sunny xmas”, what they are saying is something to the effect of “sorry for wasting your time and money, but thanks for your money”… judy, we need you to confirm….
Do you know what they are referring to with the brown? Thanks for the posts!
Kay – I really have no idea! I tried a Google search but have not found any answers yet. Let me know if you find out!
That is indeed what they say for the Xmas special. lol
awww! did that first one bum you out a little? hahaha i have always wondered what they were saying too – great post!!
thanks for posting this, always wanted to know what it was…figured it was either super fast audio, or backwards…haha
Thanks for putting this up!!!
I just found this, thanks it has been bugging the hell out of me! I’m sure yall have figured this out by now but they say “Sorry for wasting your time and money, but thanks for your money” at the end of IASIP Xmas…. Thanks again Judy
Im so envious! I havent seen the Xmas episode yet – I tried to buy it but it was sent back after the holidays.
Judy, like everyone else, I’d like to thank you for posting the sound-bites. You said, “The story of how the show came to be (as seen on the DVD) – is really inspiring”. Do you remember which disc that appeared on (I’ll need to order it again from Netflix)?
Im not sure – my boyfriend has Seasons 1-4. I assume it was Season 1 – not sure which disc.
What’s up with all the brown? Is it a poop joke?
No idea…
the fact they are syaing “make it brown” would be odd. Like, make it bad? Hmmm…
Judy: I think all of the references to “brown” are them trying to find the “brown note” which is a mythical urban legend that states playing the “brown note” makes one spontaneously poop their pants.
I’m pretty sure it’s a poop joke. Tim and Eric do the same..shit.
